Overall, I fully enjoyed my stay, and it was worth the switch back, after trying other hotels.
Pros:

The breakfast had excellent options. The coffee was a bit weak, however (hahaha). However, the gym needs a total redo. There were a few broken machines, and the treadmills are massive accidents waiting to happen!

Cons:

The workout area. Another suggestion I have is about lunch and dinner options, I find the general options limited, and also no real option for people with difficulties such as diabetes.
